Trump Sues NYC Over ‘Sanctuary City’ Policies

July 24, 2025 · 5:55 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“President Donald Trump’s Justice Department sued New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ administration in federal court Thursday, alleging the city’s ‘sanctuary’ policies interfere with the enforcement of federal immigration law,” Politico reports.

“The lawsuit represents the latest clash between the Trump administration and Democratic-controlled cities and states over immigration policy — and perhaps a final blow to the president’s mercurial relationship with Adams, one that’s frayed in recent months following a short-lived alliance.”
